Shopkeepers: at least they tried
At the end of 2020, the pandemic washed away the festive rush of shoppers in stores, even though shopkeepers had high hopes for it – blokkk.com wrote. In the end, in 2020, the number of sellers decreased by 16 thousand.
Despite the pandemic waves, slightly more food was bought in stores in 2020 than a year before, but manufactured goods purchases fell sharply. Web shopping has only partially made up for this. And year-end holiday shopping was also leaner. And the number of shopkeepers finally decreased in 2020.
